Yesterday, Fayette County officially welcomed the game home. ⚽🇺🇸
The grand opening of the Arthur M. Blank U.S. Soccer National Training Center and headquarters is more than the opening of a world-class facility, it is the beginning of a lasting relationship between U.S. Soccer and our community.
Since U.S. Soccer selected Fayette County following a nationwide search, we have had the privilege of working alongside an incredible team that shares our vision for the future. That vision is one rooted in excellence, collaboration, accessibility, innovation, and community impact. From the very beginning, their staff has embraced Fayette County not simply as a location, but as a partner and a home.
Over the past two years, we have watched this project grow from renderings and conversations into a transformational destination that will influence the future of soccer in America for generations to come. What makes us most proud, however, is not just the scale of the investment or the international spotlight it brings. It is the people behind it. The relationships built throughout this journey have been meaningful, authentic, and deeply appreciated by our team.
We are honored that U.S. Soccer chose Fayette County as the place where all 27 National Teams, coaches, referees, and future generations of players will gather, train, and grow the game.
To the entire U.S. Soccer family: thank you for believing in this community. We are proud to call you part of ours.
Welcome home. ❤️🤍💙
